You bike 1 mile the first day of your training, 1.3 miles the second day, 1.9 miles the third day, and 3.1 miles the fourth d

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

19.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have:

$d_1=1 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 1st day

$d_2=1.3 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 2nd day

$d_3=1.9 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 3rd day

$d_4=3.1 mi$ is the distance travelled during the 4th day

We notice that the difference between the distance travelled on the (n+1)-th day and the distance travelled on the n-th day doubles every day. In fact:

$d_2-d_1=0.3\\d_3-d_2=2\cdot 0.3 = 0.6\\d_4-d_3=2\cdot 0.6 = 1.2$

Which can be rewritten using the general formula:

$d_{n+1}-d_n=2(d_n-d_{n-1})$

This means that

$d_{n+1}=d_n+2(d_n-d_{n-1})$

By applying this formula recursively, we can find the 7th term, which is the distance travelled on the 7th day:

$d_1=1\\d_2=1.3\\d_3=1.9\\d_4=3.1\\d_5=3.1+2\cdot 1.2=5.5\\d_6=5.5+2\cdot 2.4=10.3\\d_7=10.3+2\cdot 4.8=19.9 mi$

So, the distance travelled on the 7th day is 19.9 miles.

How many words of five letters can be created that start with the letter T, contain 2 other consonats and end with 2 vowels? Not

Jet001 [13]

If we're only counting 5 vowels (A, E, I, O, U) and 20 consonants (everything else, minus T), then there are

$\dbinom52=\dfrac{5!}{2!(5-2)!}=10$

ways of picking the vowels, and

$\dbinom{20}2=\dfrac{20!}{2!(20-2)!}=190$

ways of picking the consonants.

We want the word to start with T, and we'll allow any arrangement of the other 4 letters, so that the total number of words is

$4!\dbinom52\dbinom{20}2=\boxed{45,600}$

Keep in mind that this means words like TRIES and TIRES are treated as different.
